Did he? He was quite passive aggressive mate. "I will never watch an andre ward fight again" "hes boring" lol. Andre ward is technically one of the best boxers of any weight class ever and froch wouldn't watch his fights? Would he watch mayweqthers fights at 147? If I had a kid who was into boxing I'd make him watch fighters like winky Wright, sweet pea (Pernell whitaker for those that do not know), mayweather, hopkins and andre ward religiously because thats how you get longevity out of your boxing career and keep your brain functioning at a high level into your latter years. Granted you could argue I'd personally rather watch 80s tyson or rjj than any of those fighters but if you are not an absolute athletic anomaly like rjj or tyson then you're better off learning the fundamentals. As far as froch goes he was a fantastic fighter but what 2ard says is pretty true and froch has a bad habit of putting people like calzaghe and ward down far too often. Calzaghe was too old, too heavy, too good and had won too many world championship belts to fight a man who was calling him out after 10-13 fights and hadn't won anything. Froch needs to let that go and put a but of respect of calzaghes name. As for ward... well the only reason froch states how good a fighter he was alongside his passive aggressive comments is because he fought ward and was shower that there are levels to this shit. I actually really enjoyed watching froch fight but he was a limited fighter that over achieved and couldn't legitimately compete with the best of the best.
@@mikebryson9350 depends what you enjoy mate and who his dancer partner is. The ward kessler fight was a very good fight to watch as were both the kovalev fights. Dont get me wrong I'd rather watch manny or lomachenko but I also genuinely enjoy watching a technical chess match of a fight as well.
Jake Modi: to be honest the Kessler fight pisses me off to watch. Wards fouling was way to excessive and under-penalised that night. The Kovalev fights were great though
Val Richards part of me really wants to bring up the ash cloud excuse he used when he lost to Kessler! However tbf I could see why he thought the fight was off but he lost to Kessler fair and square!
The WBA Regular belt is the real belt tbf. It's the one with all of the history. Muhammad Ali held the regular belt because the WBA (Super) belt didn't exist.
FootyPolitics yh and then it became a NOT real belt wen they introduced the super.... it’s just interim title in everyone’s eyes just a title to help u get a shot at the super real champ
Carl Froch was a warrior, big heart, incredible chin, but Andre Ward’s assessment was spot on regards his athleticism, and his over achievements are based on his limitations as a boxer pugilist(hit and not get hit)Carl won tough bouts through toughness. I understand Wards thought process.
I don't like Carl Froch as a man, but you can't deny he was a very capable boxer. Maybe not quite up there with someone like Andre Ward, but to say he's nothing special is ridiculous. And not athletic? The man was ripped in his pomp.
Fair play to Carl, he actually made sense here for once. Being an overachiever can’t be a bad thing, because it makes it even more impressive how far Froch went mainly on heart, fitness and toughness.
Yeah I didn't see anything disrespected being said by ward - Carl did achieve loads on heart and toughness what's so bad about that - I'd sooner fight ward than Carl in the street - wards overrated imo never beat anybody really imo - canelo would hav smashed him to pieces
Kovalev won the first fight but Ward won the second. Some low blows but I think Kovalev just could take the ou punishment of those body shots so he called low blow on ones that were on the belt
@@jack-dy7cx He beat everyone that was around at the time including a prime Kessler who beat Froch and BHOP who took many world class fighters to school. I won't include RJJ because he was past his best but no doubt about it Calzage would have took Froch to school.
Interviewer: "Do you think the version of you that beat Pascale and Bute could have beaten anyone?" Froch: "Roy Jones Jr would have beaten Andre Ward easily."
Fighting in front of those many people means what. You guys in the UK 🇬🇧 support your fighters. Frock is a good fighter. Hattie was overrated as well. He fought in the states and not at home and looked average.
@Luke 1234 You would think that, but being that "bitter narcissist" as you referred to him as, is what adds to his toughness, grit and determination. I don't suppose you've seen these boxers lose a fight, make a comeback and look like a shadow of their former self. Self-belief is massive in everything you do, especially if you're competing in sports. I can give my own experiences from doing amateur sport. As soon as you start doubting yourself you'll lose what gave you the edge, thus making you a shadow of yourself. This isn't me saying that you need to be an arrogant tool, who thinks they're above everyone. Although, believing you're better than you are at your chosen task, it'll add to what you're doing. I highly recommend looking into it, as it can have a play on many factors in your life.
@luke gYou're right it certainly does help but there've been plenty of great fighters and succesful individuals who were humble and quiet, believe it or not. Muhammad Ali and Mike Tyson were both very timid and shy in their youth and early days, Floyd Patterson was quiet as a mouse you'd be lucky if he said more than 3 words to you if he were in the same room and thats coming from his stable mate Mike Tyson.
Ward completely dominated Froch. I had that 10 rounds to 2 and honestly it looked like Ward stopped throwing his right hand in the last 4 rounds which made it easier for Froch to even nick a round or two.
Ward was pretty much spot on (I loved Froch as a fighter). Froch's strengths were his unorthodoxy, fitness, work ethic, self-belief, toughness and decent power. No great speed, average defence, never really made you sit in awe, but you gave him a chance against everyone because he fought the best consistently and mostly won against them, so he had something.
I think Andre Ward is right. As a Brit I always liked watching Carl Froch. But I always thought that Carl wasn't a great boxer. But his heart, determination, chin and toughness was levels above everyone he fought and that won him many fights against better boxers. However those attributrs alone is not enough to beat great boxers like Andre Ward. In that fight it didn't just show that Andre was slightly better, it showed he was levels above Carl
That's true, but Froch used that argument in a previous interview by suggesting Robin Reid beat Calzaghe. It was a close fight, but Joe deserved the win.
His first statement was aimed at his era, not all eras of boxing, he basically saying he belives andre was the greatest of his time but not the greatest of all time
Carl achieved what he did through being one of the toughest fighters that ever lived.yes he had skill and some boxing ability but his whole career was built on that chin,strength and ability to give and take punishment.he always looked hittable and sometimes slow of hand and foot but that toughness closed the gap on those more talented.
Froch was hard as nails, heart, strength and a sheer will to win, he achieved more than most, so much respect for that, and doing groves twice was just quality.
When he says not athletic, that doesn’t mean fit, I think he means not fluid in his movements. The thing about Froch and why he’s not one of the greats is he was reasonably easy to hit for a world champion but his punch resistance and powers of recovery were off the chart. Anyone slick, fast and able to avoid punches for 12 rounds would beat him 99% of the time. Still love him though, warrior!
He is a good brawler, decent defence, very fit, good power, great heart, granite chin compensates for fairly mediocre skills. But definitely a top notch brawler.
All elite fighters over achieve in some way. Andre Ward over achieved. He had to fight boring to gather the success he did, and had not used tactics to the level he did, he may have been beaten. Froch is spot on here. It's about as humble as you will ever see him!
Calling someone an elite, undefeated boxer isnt hating. Saying he used tactics is a compliment too. It's very hard to stick to a game plan like Andre did. Think before you write.
Froch fought the toughest 15 fights in a row to close his career. He went 13 - 2. He had a granite chin, and a great personality in and out of ring. Would have loved to seen him & Calzaghe fight. I have Froch as #4 all-time at Super Middleweight
Hard for Carl to go any higher up in my estimations, but he’s done it again. Supreme confidence but also that rare virtue - humility. I know many a lesser man who don’t have an ounce of the humility he shows here. Hats off to you. Entertaining always.
He keeps mentioning Joe calzaghe and trying to bad mouth him on every video I see of Carl's . Joe calzaghe was a better fighter than him...fact ....it would of been a 50 /50 fight between calzaghe and ward in there prime .froch was not a boxer he could brawl ,and could take a punch , that was it . Calzagee was a boxer that could adapt to every opponent, could take a punch and brawl as well and people say he slapped and didn't punch hard.ask Chris eubanks if calzaghe could punch hard and was heavy handed. Look back at the two documentaries that eubanks was in and talks about if calzaghe could punch hard. Calzagee held the super middleweight champion belts for 12 years and was ,46 /0 that's some achievement.
We all know Froch is a complete Bellend and we all know Joe Calzahe would have taken him to school but he is right about Andre Ward, Really boring fighter and I would never go back and re watch any of his fights !
@@H.K.5 You're absolutely right, but in 10 years no one will know who Ward is except for the experts. No one will watch his fights or recommend them to the next generation. It's been 30 years and I'm still watching Hearns, Leonard, Duran, and Hagler. And younger guys are watching them as well.
Mandark Astronomonov believe me Ward’s fight will be recommended to the next generous. People keep forgetting boxing is a sport, an art. It ain’t always about going toe to toe seeing who can get knocked out first. Ward’s fights will always been recommenced along with Mayweathers, simply to showcase the art of boxing! How to get hit and not get hit. Defence boxing is becoming more and more prominent in today’s age and if you want to consistently win, you need to be defensive so up and coming boxers will study fighters like this. You can say he is boring, but Floyd did the exact same thing and everyone still watches his fights? Doesn’t change the fact award was the king of his devision. Boxing is a sport ! Isn’t always about entertainment.
Some people in life just have there way with you and ward physically bear carl and now mentally terrorizes him. And because carl is so egotistical its brilliant
Froch is probably the most underrated British fighter ever. His last 11 fights were all world championship fights. How many fighters have done that? He fought all the top fighters in his division throughout his career and the only loss he had was Ward (He avenged Kessler). Who else has ever had a record like that? He had slow hands but he had incredible ring smarts. His timing was probably pound for pound one of the best in his era, you don't go as far as he did with slow handspeed without having incredible timing to make up for it
Your best win Lucian Bute was a hype job too. Calzaghe had more to him than just a tough chin and heart which is all Froch had going for him. I don't know who Froch thinks he is by continually slagging off better boxers than him like Calzaghie and Ward?
Real humility from Mr Froch. Your a "King" in my eyes. Ffs , Frock knocked out Taylor in the last seconds. One of the best performances , in my top 10.
He was absolutely offended. Which is ok. Just don’t pretend and then go on to call Ward a snore fest 567 times before the interview ends. Classic Brit. Feign respect to come off “the bigger man” and then boom…side swipe.
Have to say fair play to froch shows real humility, was a close fight and froch was coming on strong at the finish. Great fighter one of the uks best ever
I rather watch a Froch fight than a Ward one Froch is more entertaining especially the Taylor fight in he’s backyard Froch hit but was sometimes not quite as sharp
Let's not forget Andre Ward got clearly beaten by Sergey Kovalev in the first fight and was given an absolute gift decision, a shocking robbery, and he knows it. His face said it all when the decision was announced.
Froch is right about Roy Jones beating Andre Ward. Ward’s style was tailor made for Roy Jones. I think the athleticism and speed and power would have been too much.
@@discipleofthemessiah8652 in your opinion. Roy's got great movement and speed but suspect defense and chin. Back to back ko's losses when he was 35 against fighters that were the same age as him reinforces that he couldn't adapt so he's definitely overrated.
I think Ward was actually quite complimentary towards Froch , whilst he outlined his shortcomings he gave him credit for the intangible things he has like heart desire work ethic etc I think his assesment was fair and Froch couldn't really argue with it , on boxing ability alone Froch would've lost more at the highest level but he made the best of what he had to utilise , Froch for me is a top 5 best of British all time easy his resume is stacked 👍

You can say he is boring, but Floyd did the exact same thing and everyone still watches his fights? Doesn’t change the fact award was the king of his devision. Boxing is a sport ! Isn’t always about entertainment.
most humble I have ever seen Froch
I have to agree with froch in this interview tho 😂
Some people in life just have there way with you and ward physically bear carl and now mentally terrorizes him.
And because carl is so egotistical its brilliant
I think everything CF said in this interview was one hundred per cent spot on 🥊
Froch is probably the most underrated British fighter ever. His last 11 fights were all world championship fights. How many fighters have done that? He fought all the top fighters in his division throughout his career and the only loss he had was Ward (He avenged Kessler). Who else has ever had a record like that? He had slow hands but he had incredible ring smarts. His timing was probably pound for pound one of the best in his era, you don't go as far as he did with slow handspeed without having incredible timing to make up for it
Your best win Lucian Bute was a hype job too. Calzaghe had more to him than just a tough chin and heart which is all Froch had going for him. I don't know who Froch thinks he is by continually slagging off better boxers than him like Calzaghie and Ward?
I didn't see that as an insult. Froch is known for a great chin and great work ethic. The Taylor was just ifs and buts.
😂😂calzaghe would have gave Carl a lesson in boxing
Joe calzaghe is the best super middle we have ever seen ! 46-0
Imagine how Badly Joe Calzaghe would of schooled him
I think he took the criticism well to be fair
roddi733 only because he has no choice his piss was boiling inside
Carl is a good lad.
Absolute helmet
Carl still mentions Calzaghe when he’s talking about Andre Ward.
Froch is an honest guy in this interview
They spoke the truth about each other. Froch is an over achiever and ward was a really boring dirty fighter who lost against Kovalev.
The title tries to frame this as negatively as possible he was actually quite complimentary.
Real humility from Mr Froch. Your a "King" in my eyes. Ffs , Frock knocked out Taylor in the last seconds. One of the best performances , in my top 10.
What’s with the moustache looks like face on a Pringle box
Trying to appeal to the LGBT community, he wants to break free.
🤣🤣🤣
I was expecting him to say "Good Moaning!"
He was absolutely offended. Which is ok. Just don’t pretend and then go on to call Ward a snore fest 567 times before the interview ends. Classic Brit. Feign respect to come off “the bigger man” and then boom…side swipe.
I agree about Roy Jones being much more exciting to watch than ward.
Do you know Carl reads all these comments to make sure someone mentions that he once fought in front of 80,000 people.
Have to say fair play to froch shows real humility, was a close fight and froch was coming on strong at the finish. Great fighter one of the uks best ever
Froch speaking complete sense here ....
I rather watch a Froch fight than a Ward one Froch is more entertaining especially the Taylor fight in he’s backyard Froch hit but was sometimes not quite as sharp
Let's not forget Andre Ward got clearly beaten by Sergey Kovalev in the first fight and was given an absolute gift decision, a shocking robbery, and he knows it. His face said it all when the decision was announced.
Correct...ward never seems to want to talk about the first fight for some reason...rematch kovalev was finished as a top level fighter
Ward was exactly right, he is very unathletic and an overachiever.
Carl has sour grapes to this day.
He can't argue with Ward, you can tell that loss eats him alive
Froch is right about Roy Jones beating Andre Ward. Ward’s style was tailor made for Roy Jones. I think the athleticism and speed and power would have been too much.
Nah Roy would lose on points
Prime Roy beats everyone. That’s why all the commentators had him no.1. There was no arguments there. He was levels above everyone at his best!!!!!
@@discipleofthemessiah8652 in your opinion. Roy's got great movement and speed but suspect defense and chin. Back to back ko's losses when he was 35 against fighters that were the same age as him reinforces that he couldn't adapt so he's definitely overrated.
@@discipleofthemessiah8652 definitely !
Fair play to Froch. Very honest.
Smh. Man knocked out George Groves in Wembley stadium in front of 80,000 people. Not a lot of people know that
Not everyone can appreciate art , people think it’s boring ... same goes with boxing styles like Andre ward
“It was absolutely spot on to be honest” . First words from Carl Froch.
Froch on fighting, pass the pod... Sorry wrong person ;)
"hits back" smh
Freddie Mercury asked some good questions there
I think Ward was actually quite complimentary towards Froch , whilst he outlined his shortcomings he gave him credit for the intangible things he has like heart desire work ethic etc I think his assesment was fair and Froch couldn't really argue with it , on boxing ability alone Froch would've lost more at the highest level but he made the best of what he had to utilise , Froch for me is a top 5 best of British all time easy his resume is stacked 👍
